Playing Div 1 has served Arva well

Hopefully more try it to take on the kerry juggernaut annually

I'd say both those teams would be top 3 or 4 in Armagh.

Here he comes, crying once more.

Say what you want but it's a huge contributing factor as to how good Arva are. The goonies back in 2002 did it the hard way

Arva 0-13 Listowel 0-10. Congrats to the Cavan team full value for that win, settled themselves after a nervy 1st half to outscore the Kerry champions 9-3 2nd half. Very good defensively and but for some poor shot selection they could have won that AI final by a bigger margin.

Hardly means Junior teams make your top 4. That still is a huge gap to get across

Cavan Div 1 team beats other senior champ teams in Cavan but poster says they are nowhere near a senior team.. my god

[Armagh18]

Aw lads not this again.

Game far from over but Arva would be far better off being less negative if you ask me. Trying to win at this level in Croker with 15 behind ball is difficult. After the first 10 mins Listowel have them figured out a bit. Eddie Healy and Niall Collins having great games at back for Listowel. Arva 11 and 14 are good if they got more ball and support. Very negative tactics aren't helping though.
Still a goal could swing things either way here.

Fair play to Arva and their mgmt aswell - far better second half and when they pushed up on Listowel they squeezed the life out of them. Some appalling calls by ref, black card especially but nevertheless the better team won. Arva should have won by 10 really in the end with all the chances they missed.
Ciarán Brady obviously was outstanding but 3 and 11 were excellent for Arva aswell I thought.

Listowel weren't tested really since Kerry final and it probably showed. But they ran out of gas a bit and also several big players underperforming didn't help them. They'll benefit from the experience though.

Well done Arva, commiserations to Listowel. A great advertisement for Junior club football.

[Gael85]

Well done to Arva.  An enjoyable game of football.

Aw lads not this again.

It's fairly straight forward.. how can anyone come on here and say that Arva playing div 1 football has been not pivotal to what they achieved this year. They are a fantastic team but the Cavan man is burying his head in the sand saying it had no bearing what so ever... must have been the 15 point hammerings in the champ that made them all ire champs

I thought the ref was hard on them for sure but the black card (by the letter of the law) was right, but there must have been some mouthing going on by the Kerry lads as he moved the ball forward a lot.

He's only human and those 50/50 calls will generally go against ya

No point having a few quid on this Armagh team now?
